Return to the Day When My Pregnant Wife Jumped Off the Building-Chapter 427 Submission_1

The man behind Jiang Yueli reacted quickly, almost blocking in front of Jiang Yueli at the same time Jiang Nanxi moved.

With a bang, the man stepped back half a step, but Jiang Nanxi was sent flying back.

As Xiao Ming rose to catch her, he felt a great force, making three continuous spins before barely dissipating it.

"Are you okay?" he asked.

"Thank you, sir!"

Jiang Nanxi shook her head, her gaze fixed on the man as she said through gritted teeth, "Please rest assured, sir, next time I will not value my life more than he does!"

Xiao Ming glanced at the man’s pale face and immediately understood.

Their martial skills should be on a par, perhaps Jiang Nanxi was even slightly superior, but the man fought recklessly, which was why Jiang Nanxi was at a disadvantage from the outset.

Seizing Jiang Nanxi who was preparing to charge again, he said, "There’s no need. You are mine, and your life is precious. You can’t waste it on a mere servant."

"But..."

"There are no buts. Didn’t you hear my conversation with Mr. Jiang just now? He doesn’t dare to kill me."

Jiang Yueli scoffed, "Mr. Xiao, I don’t know where this confidence of yours comes from, so let me remind you.

The poison in the wine comes from a South American viper; after being poisoned, a person will go blind within half an hour, then suffer muscle soreness, chest tightness, bloody urine, and finally die of acute kidney failure.

This snake has a very mysterious behavior, making it difficult to capture; its venom can sell for up to ten thousand US dollars per milliliter on the black market, and the antivenom serum is even more expensive.

Oh, I also have an answer for the question you asked earlier—I did not know in advance that you would choose Huaiyang Cuisine Restaurant, so I prepared not just yellow wine, but also white wine, red wine, beer, whiskey, and three kinds of fine tea. There’s always one you’ll use."

Xiao Ming laughed, "So you’re saying Mr. Jiang has used no less than ten milliliters of viper venom.

With a cost over a hundred thousand US dollars, it’s not a lot, but he’s put in some effort."

"You flatter me, Mr. Xiao!" Jiang Yueli smiled radiantly, "Considering you know so much that you shouldn’t, you deserve to be treated cautiously by this younger brother."

"Mingyue!"

Jiang Nanxi suddenly gripped Xiao Ming’s arm tightly, "Sir, isn’t Miss Mingyue very skilled in using poison? Contact her quickly!"

"Since you know Mingyue is skilled with poison, why are you so nervous?"

"It’s your life at stake, sir, how could I not be nervous? There’s no ’what if’—no, there can’t be a ’what if’—you must live!"

Looking at Jiang Nanxi’s eyes turning red, Xiao Ming smiled in satisfaction, and said to Jiang Yueli, "Thank you, Mr. Jiang, for giving me the heart of another beautiful girl.

In light of this matter, I’ll forgive you for the sin of poisoning me. Let’s let a servant take the blame!"

Before his words even finished, a whizzing sound was heard, and the man beside Jiang Yueli’s forehead showed a small hole, and he collapsed to the ground.

In Xiao Ming’s hand was a pistol equipped with a silencer.

Jiang Yueli did nothing, not even changing his smiling expression.

"Mr. Xiao, are you trying to create some kind of standoff?"

Xiao Ming put away the gun, shook his head with a sigh, "How many times must I say it before Mr. Jiang will believe that I know you well enough?

As an outcast and madman of a wealthy family, you disregard even your family’s safety, so how could you possibly fear death?"

Jiang Yueli finally showed emotion, and it clearly wasn’t a pretense, as he clenched his chopsticks so hard they snapped in his hand.

"That’s impossible! How could you know? Even my grandfather doesn’t..."

"I just do!"

Xiao Ming interrupted him, "The reason you didn’t directly kill me but chose to meet me is indeed not because you don’t dare, nor is it for negotiating on behalf of the family, but because you want to know how I came to know the Jiang Family’s secrets.

Now, here’s your answer: I just know, even many things you’re unaware of, I know!"

Jiang Yueli stared straight at his face, his gaze seemingly ferocious enough to devour.

"What exactly do you want from me?"

Xiao Ming met his gaze and uttered two words, "Submission!"

Jiang Yueli was taken aback, then shook his head with a chuckle of disdain, "Based on what?"

"Based on the fact that I am the only one in this world who understands you and can provide you with a stage to indulge in your madness."

"What stage? Red Lotus Society? Too small, I don’t see it as worthy."

"Red Lotus Society is just a stepping stone, my initial target is the Infinite Society."

"And then?"

"Have you heard of a pyramid?"

Jiang Yueli’s pupils constricted sharply, then burst out with an extremely bright light; even Jiang Nanxi could feel the madness in his eyes.

After a lengthy silence, Jiang Yueli suddenly reached into his breast and pulled out a revolver.

Jiang Nanxi was ready to act instantly, but was restrained by Xiao Ming.

The next moment, Jiang Yueli ejected the cylinder of the revolver, dumped out the six bullets, inserted one back in, and then placed it on the turntable of the dining table, spinning it to face Xiao Ming.

"Although young master here hasn’t done much of note, I’ve always had high self-esteem. Mr. Xiao, to make me submit, words alone are not enough.

Pick it up. As long as you dare to pull the trigger three times at your head and survive, Jiang Yueli’s head will bow."

"Ridiculous!"

Jiang Nanxi scoffed, "The entire Jiang Family, including your life, is in my master’s hands, what right do you have..."

She couldn’t finish her words because Xiao Ming had already picked up the revolver, pressing the barrel against his temple.

Click, click, click, click, click!

He pulled the trigger five times in quick succession!
